Chapter 117 - 111: Chaos Army
Zhao Song scanned the others with his eyes, and someone sighed, "Then let’s defend."
"Let’s defend."
Zhao Hu cursed a couple of times, "Isn’t it just over four thousand people? We have almost the same number of strong men in our Wu Castle. Are we afraid of them?"
Zhao Ming did not mention the disparity between the two sides and continued, "Since we are determined to hold on to the end, let’s take advantage of the initial chaos outside and send the fire seeds away."
"Where to send them?"
"To Governor He in Yu Yang, ask him to send someone to take them to Luoyang to join the clan leader."
Zhao Ming said, "No, send them to Shangcai, give them to Third Lady."
Before long, loud shouts and sounds of battle came from the gate of the Wu Castle. Zhao Ming wrote a letter, gave it to a subordinate, and turned to the tower, while Zhao Song handed three selected young boys and a five or six-year-old girl to a squad, instructing them to take the four children and leave from another part of the Wu Castle.
Zhao Hu still didn’t understand, "Is it necessary to this extent? It’s just over four thousand people; can we not hold the Wu Castle?"
Zhao Song, his face stern, replied, "It’s different; they are desperate people."
The ditch outside the Wu Castle was not wide. Although it was hard to climb out after jumping in, and people from the castle shot arrows and threw stones, these ragged soldiers with yellowing faces were obviously pushed to the brink. They only saw the castle at this moment, fearless of death.
